You mean after Apple?

Who knows anymore? I used to like RCA. I admired their product design and integration. But in recent years their stuff have become breakdown-prone crap. I also liked Chrysler, but they're not really the same since they got sold to the kr-- uh, Germans.

I have favorite brands in all different categories...
Computers: Apple
Cars: Mercedes-Benz, Ford, Toyota
Cameras: Canon
Beverages: Pepsi, Shiner Bock
Car Stereo: Pioneer
Trumpet: Bach Stradivarius
Clothes: Old Navy (I'm a poor college student so armani and stuff like that is out of the question)
Bikes: GT (mountain bikes), Shimano components, and RoxShox (sp?) forks
Fast Food: Whataburger, (although Arbys is good, when available)


I've got favorites in other areas too, but there are too many to list, and I can't think of them all right now...

My, those sound tasty. What are the best flavors?


Aside from Apple, some of my favorite brands are:

Arc Teryx (outdoor gear; very pricey but incredible quality and just all-around slick)

MSR (more outdoor gear - backpacking stoves, filters, tents. These items must be high quality since your survival depends on them! I have their Sidewinder tent, Pocket Rocket stove, MiniWorks filter, hydration bladder, and a cookset. Nothing's ever failed me yet, and it's all been through a lot!)

Western Mountaineering (Awesome down sleeping bags.)

Moosejaw (very cool mountaineering store here in Michigan)

I guess the only brands I really care much about are outdoor gear brands!

gotta love those had a few of those from Boots in their £2.99 meal deals. I really love how the UK is getting obsessed with food and drinks without crappy chemicals in. wonder if Jamie Oliver is to blame?
i tell ya... cold chicken and bacon sandwich, peach and apricot Innocent drink and either a chocolate brownie or those heavenly milky shortbreads. oh god. i might go into town and get that

You guys keep jogging my memory:

Apple
Sony (some things)
Sony-Ericsson
Samsung
Canon
Nintendo
Google

Hyundai (I have one, and apparently, there's lots of brand loyalty for these )
Honda/Acura
BMW, Volvo, Nissan

Ikea
Muji
Birkenstocks
Bluenotes
New Balance
Mountain Equipment Co-op (MEC) (great quality outdoor stuff for cheap...and it's Canadian. )
Arcteryx (Got a top-of-the-line red Alpha SV.....amazing. They're made entirely in Vancouver)
Porter Bags (yes, I'm a straight guy, but bags are useful for guys too, damnit! )

Coke
Pringles
Arnotts TimTams
Guinness
Leffe Brun

****All those fruit drink companies, including Innocent, Feel Good, and all the smoothie places, are just taking advantage of your health concerns, making you think that it costs heaps to drink healthily. Go to many places in the world, like Taipei for example, and you can get a fresh fruit juice(where they take the fruit, ice, blend it, and serve....nothing more) for around $0.25 to $1, and it's not ONLY because the economy is different. They also don't include a lot of yoghurts and other fillers into it. I get charged $4 USD at my local smoothie place, and now I wonder why it's so expensive. It's juice with some milk and yoghurt/ice, and their fruit juice isn't even fresh fruits......its sweetened preserved fruits mixed with sugary syrup. The only thing that's fresh is the banana they always add. No reason to charge so much for not-so-fresh, unnatural fruit juice.
